Description
Two hundred years from now, the earth is dying, scorched by powerful flares from the sun. An alien civilization has sent messages to humanity, promising rescue to those strong enough to survive on their planet.
The first message arrives for Leon, a member of the True Path warrior culture, who must initiate his test: to kill in cold blood. But when he cannot do it, he sets out to find the earth's fifth and final message from the Saviours, with the help of his resourceful servant, Martha.
As they journey through the wild, Leon discovers alarming changes in his body - he can drink water through his skin, and has poison barbs buried deep in his flesh. He soon learns that Jacob's Ladder, an adaptation for life on the alien planet, has lain dormant in his genes and is now being activated.
